    No life and death decision are based on these threads.

    Lawmakers don’t check out these pages before passing laws. Countries don’t go to war on the word of anonymous posters and I daresay rabonim don’t pasken based on it either.

    So take a chill pill and enjoy.

    They do?

    So can you tell me which law, based on who’s reply to which post, how long ago?

    You can’t, HA! You see ?

    (How to show a pointed finger? I want to make it more dramatic )

    It’s a mixed forum, it seems.

    Some threads are devoted to lite topics(funny even), some for personal advice, and some halachic and political items.

    While what you say is true,(although searches may bring comments on this forum to the attention of outsiders), it is still important because the political topics are put in the minds of some of those who would, otherwise, possibly just continue in their carefree world of lite topics(which, without a doubt, are essential because they provide a reprieve from all those heavy subjects) and never give these topics a care.

    Real halacha I would look elsewhere but talking mussar and ethics is also essential because, like the political topics, it makes one think of important subjects we might avoid.

    Actually, a “life or death” situation could arise, if someone was despondent and didn’t know where to turn, reading an inspirational comment could help a person, and the reverse, G-d forbid, could also be true.

    Just my thoughts on the subject.

    I suspect that many politicians monitor list serves such as this one, and probably the American and Israeli intelligence and criminal investigation services. Some marketing companies might do so as well.

    Although it turned into an argument about wearing jackets, the thread titled ” Am I the one disrespecting the davening?” Actually inspired me to be More careful about talking during davening. So there you go.

    I, for one take EVERYTHING here most seriously. If it’s the coffee room of the Yeshiva, must be they know what they’re talking about. No?

    Hashem is watching what we post. We should not be scared of rabbonim. We should be scared of Hashem. We dont do things for rabbis or for other jews. WE DO EVERYTHING FOR HASHEM!!
